Life Update

Haha, was thinking of this last night. And then I saw i wasn't the only one.

1) I haven't heard back on the virtual assistant job. While it would have been awesome due to the benefits, ect, I was also stressing about the time and demands. But I kept looking and applying. On Tuesday I got an offer letter for a contract work from home position. I have to pass their training but I'm not worried about that. So yay!!

2) we are waiting to try for kid #2. P finally admitted yesterday he is unhappy at work and when his 18 months are up he will look for another job. He had to work for 18 months for his work to pay for our move. If he quits now we have to pay them back. He has 3 months left. So he is just biding his time. It's sad because he likes his job. He and his boss are having issues.

3) our finances are finally balancing out. Thanks for listening to me stress since we moved. It just cost us more than I thought and then with christmas. Ugh! So we finally have breathing room. Not a lot. But with me working part time soon, we can build up our savings again.

4) I'm starting to plan Lily's 2nd birthday. Eeep. Hard to believe she is almost 2. Yet she is such a big girl.

Re: Life Update

  • I'm happy to hear everything is working out for you as far as getting a part time job and balancing out your finances. I hope your H is able to really find a job he loves when the 3 months is up. Enjoy planning Lily's second birthday. I already have Abby's theme picked out and know what we are serving for food and hers isn't until July, It sounds like waiting to TFAS is best for you guys.

  • Ditto with Megan. I hope that all goes well! I hope that P can find something soon, although things may change in three months.

  • Thanks! I hope he finds something too. He's just really frustrated. The regional manager hired him and said after 6 months he would be on call. This was the reason to not go any higher on his salary. Well he still isn't on call. The local manager had just been promoted before P got here. He did what P did. The manager isn't supposed to be on call anymore but he doesn't want to give up the money so he is still on the schedule. P asked him at his yearly review why he hasn't put him on call yet. His manager said he thinks P has the most technical knowledge of all the guys there but that he wants him to do more training classes. The main issue on that for P is that another guy who was hired after him and who messes up all the time was just put on call. So he is really frustrated.

  • It is so frustrating when you hate your job or have issues with your boss.  I hope he finds something soon.  Google in Boulder is hiring a lot of people here soon.  IDK if they have an office in Denver, but its something to look into. 
  • good luck with everything! Glad everything for the most part is looking up!

  • Thanks Jen. I'll let him know. We live close to 36 and he said Boulder is only about 30 min from us. Not a bad drive if the job is right. :)
